Xiang Libao was a little confused when he heard it. He couldn't understand some words at all. He couldn't help but said to Ying Gao: "Master, can you explain something in detail? I don't understand something?"
This was the first time he heard some of the words in Ying Gao's words. For a moment, he couldn't understand them at all. At this moment, Xiang Liba couldn't help but ask Ying Gao.
He hopes to get an explanation from Ying Gao!
Hearing this, Ying Gao turned to Xiang Liba and said: "This requires you to experiment again and again to get specific insights. Of course, you can study the firing of colored glaze first, which will definitely inspire you!"
"I will leave the methods and requirements to you. This is the first experiment in the underground laboratory. I hope you will not disappoint me. After all, the speed of spending money in this laboratory is already comparable to that of Daqin Central University.
.”
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Xiang Liba hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, I wonder what the raw materials for making this glass are, or are they the same as those for making colored glaze?"
"The quartz sand, soda ash, limestone, feldspar, etc. that are purified from white silica are crushed. Specific experiments are needed to obtain specific data and raw materials. This is just a guess by me."
At this time, Ying Gao could only selectively throw out some things to earn a certain amount of money from the world, and he certainly did not want to release the technology that would increase the combat power of various countries in the entire Central Plains.
Just like Ying Gao obviously can make paper, but all the time, Ying Gao has occasionally thought in his heart, but he can't make it, because some things can only have great effects at a specific point in time.
"promise."
Ying Gao still trusted Qin Mo's people.
He knew in his heart that Qin Mo and the Gongshu family of this era had a lot of skills in their hands. According to the development level of this era, they could all be called black technologies.
In this underground laboratory, there are not only skilled craftsmen in the world, but also people from the Gongshu family and the Mo family. It can be said that the best craftsmen in the world have been assembled. This is why Ying Gao believes that in the future, the Jiannan Chamber of Commerce and the Peacock Chamber of Commerce will
A reason that will sweep across the entire Central Plains.
The war is imminent, and he needs to prepare some things in advance before he has a chance to go south.
Sitting in the stone pavilion, Ying Gao and Fan Zeng were drinking together, their expressions solemn, and there was no great sadness or joy in their eyes, as if they were not teenagers.
"Soon I will send troops south to Yelang and other places. Do you plan to stay in Xianyang, sir, or follow me south to fight on the battlefield?"
Putting down the wine cup, Ying Gao looked at Fan Zeng. Regarding the trip south, he had not made up his mind whether he should take Fan Zeng with him or not.
Although Fan Zeng is not seventy years old now, he is already old, and the dangers in the south and the extreme south are not comparable to those in the Central Plains.
Once Fan Zeng goes south, the risk will be too great.
This is a top strategic master. Ying Gao is not willing to let him suffer in the extreme south, but he feels a little inconvenient to be alone.
Most of the people around him were the younger generation like Meng Liao and Wang Li. Apart from that, he had almost no one available to him.
An expedition with a partial division is equivalent to a lone army hanging thousands of miles away. It must be far more complicated than the previous expedition to Xihai County and other places.
Precisely because he didn't know what to do, Ying Gao spoke to Fan Zeng and kicked the ball to Fan Zeng, letting Fan Zeng make his own decision.
"This trip to the extreme south, the young master is not sure of victory?" Fan Zeng glanced at Ying Gao in surprise, and couldn't help but ask tentatively.
He knew in his heart that in Ying Gao's heart, he was invincible. Whether he was facing the Zhao general Li Mu, or pointing his sword at Xihai County and other Qiang lands, he was still extremely confident.
This was the first time he saw Ying Gao's lack of self-confidence!
"It's not that we are certain of victory. This time we go south to the extreme south, we will be alone for thousands of miles. Not only will there be no food supplies along the way, but the local environment will be harsh."
Having said this, Ying Gao smiled helplessly and said: "What's more, I only have Wang Li, Meng Liao, and Tie Ying under my command, so it is very dangerous to go south this time."
"And the most important thing is that there are only 50,000 old soldiers following me south this time, and the other 50,000 troops will be temporarily recruited in Bashu."
"At that time, whether it is weapons or equipment, it will be a big problem. Logistics issues require a reliable person to take charge. Even if war can be used to support war, the army's equipment needs to be supplied in a timely manner."
…
Ying Gao knew in his heart that just like the battle of Xihai County, after this battle, the number of troops in his hands would be greatly increased, and by then, weapons and equipment would have to be transported from the Central Plains.
This will be a great test for those in charge of logistics. After all, the road to Bashu is too difficult, and transporting equipment will be a big problem.
"The road to Shu is as difficult as reaching the sky. Have you ever thought about how to solve the logistical problems, especially the equipment?"
Fan Zeng's eyes were blazing, and he knew in his heart that the difficulty of the road to Shu had not been solved for hundreds of years. Only by solving this problem could this trip to the south be successful.
After taking a sip of herbal tea, Ying Gao was silent for a long time, and then turned to Fan Zeng and said, "I plan to attack Yelang and other places first, capture Qing Zhuang, and dig out a galloping road."
"A galloping road can pass ten Da Qin standard chariots at the same time. Then the army attacks in the front, and the galloping road in the rear continues southward to connect with the army."
"As long as the army reaches there, Chidao will be built there. In this way, this problem will definitely be solved. However, this will cause the army to attack the extreme south at a slower speed."
"And the rear must be managed by capable people. Not only does it need to plan roads, it also needs to open mountains and fill valleys, and even need to be in charge of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of slaves."
"If we don't care about the life and death of the slaves, I believe that within a year, the Chi Road between Bashu and Xianyang will be completely opened, and the rest will continue."
After hearing what Ying Gao said, Fan Zeng's expression suddenly became solemn. He knew in his heart that this was a large-scale project, even no less than the various levels of academic palaces built in the Qin Dynasty.
With thoughts flickering in his mind, Fan Zeng turned towards Ying Gao and said, "Sir, this requires the imperial court to discuss and then design a specific route for Chidao. It also requires an army of 300,000 to enter Bashu and take control."
"Otherwise, if there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of slaves, without the suppression of a large army, there will be no stability at all, and there may even be riots!"
"I think this matter needs to be discussed further. After all, it is related to the national policy of the Qin Dynasty. This is no longer a simple move of troops southward!"
